A short update from South Beach, FL, where the weather is awesome and the beach beautiful! I'm at a computer in the our hotel now, The Bentley. There's no official internet terminal here but they were so kind to let me use an employee computer.

We spend our days swimming, walking and (when the sun's not too strong), lying at the beach. The hotel has a swimming pool on top of the building, which is very convenient even though the beach is only a few hunderd meters away. The hotel we're staying is located at the "Ocean Drive", a promenade parallel to the sea. We managed not to get burned from the sun -- except my right lower leg that I forgot to put lotion on the first day. I've made quite some pictures but I can't put them online now.

I saw the result of the soccer game between Holland and Portugal at the airport in Philadelphia, as well as the highlights of that match. Disappointing, that's for sure. We are not certain who to support now in the final match that's on tonigh, between Portugal and Greece. We found a place where we can watch the match. There is however a much bigger event going on today: it's July 4th, the American Independence Day which is traditionally celebrated with fireworks and a huge party.

So much for now, back to the swimming pool.
